These windows are ideal for all types of industrial and manufactur- 
They are permanent, fireproof, never stick, shrink or wrap, and 


open or close easily regardless of climatic conditions. 


Installing Details 


INSPECTION AND CHECKING 


Upon the arrival of your consignment of 
windows: 


1. Arrange for immediate unloading. 


2, be Sure you, checks youn umaterial 
against the shipping memorandum 


and freight bill. 


3. All shortages must be reported at the 
time of checking to the railroad 
agent, who will note them in the 
freight bill. 


4. Send noted freight bill with any nec- 
essary remarks to our Claim Divi- 
sion, Truscon Steel Co., Youngstown, 


Ohio. 


UNEOA DING AN DIS TACKING 


Always handle and stack steel windows on 
edge. Put timbers on the ground with a firm 
even bearing and make a substantial vertical 
support, as shown in figure |. ‘This saves the 
windows from becoming distorted. 


Store the mullions and hardware in a dry 
place where they will not be lost or exposed 
to the weather. Loss of fittings is not only 
costly but may delay the installation. 


WINDOW ANCHORAGE 


The erection of Truscon Steel Windows is 
based upon the proper anchorage of the out- 
side frame member in the building structure. 


At the. head and jambs this? lee vextends 
approximately 58” into the wall. By study- 
ing the installation details on pages 9 and 10, 
it will be noted that a space of 38” is allowed 
between the line of the wall and the sash 
frame. ‘This allows: for slight discrepancies 
in the opening, permits adjustment of the win- 
dows and gives clearance to the ventilators 
that come at the head, sill or side jambs. 


THE sPREPARED OPENING 


In every case where one or more units are 
used, the opening should be prepared before 
the window is erected. Proper grooves and 
rebates around the opening should be made 
strictly in accordance with the details shown 
on pages 9 and 10. 


Truscon Pivoted Steel Windows must be 
erected plumb and level regardless of the 
shape of the opening itself. Never attempt to 
make the windows conform with the shape of 
the opening. ‘This not only spoils the archi-

tectural appearance of the window, but distor- 
tion keeps the ventilators from closing tightly 
and often prevents proper glazing. 


INSTALLATION IN CONCRETE, 
DICK SLONE OR IEE 


In general the method of placing Pivoted 
Steel Windows in all types of construction 1s 
the ssame, lhe openings are prepared in 
accordance with details shown on pages 9 
and 10. When the window has been placed in 
the prepared opening and the outside legs 
have been entered in the: proper grooves at 
the head, sill and jamb, the units must be 
“blocked up” and plumbed before grouting 
and pointing, figure 2. All blocking is done 
from the interior. Small hardwood wedges 
will be found most satisfactory for this work. 


First, drive a wedge under each corner of 
the unit at the sill, raising the window until 
the frame has been entered equally in the slot 
at the head and sill. Now drive wedges in at 


Diy le ea CeO RUAN Yee

the head of the window in the same relative 
position as those at the sill. 


Next center the window in the opening so 
that the legs of the frame enter equally into 
the grooves at the jambs. Great care must be 
taken that the window is not distorted in driv- 
ing wedges. 

Wedges should always be driven at the cor- 
ners of the window frame or at opposite ends 
of the interior muntin bars that are continuous 
the entire dimension of the window, as shown 
in figure 3. ‘This is particularly important 
with ventilated units. Failure to recognize 
this caution results in distortions which make 


it impossible for ventilators to close properly. 


When the windows are “pointed up,” cau- 


tion the masons not to force the grout into 
the grooves. ‘This results in distortion in the 
same manner as improper wedging. 


INSTALLATION IN STEELE

recognized and accepted by engineers and 
architects as most practical for window erec- 
tion-in«steel. 


A small I-beam clip is used to hold the win- 
dow in place at the head and jambs. A strap 
anchor or angle clip, fastened to the sill mem- 
ber of the window, secures the unit at this 
point. All punching of structural steel for the 
attachment of brackets should be done when 
the steel work is fabricated. Punching the 
members in the field delays installation and 
materially increases the cost. 


The windows are placed in the opening in 
practically the same manner as with concrete 
or brick. When T-bar mullions are used the 
web must be turned out so as not to interfere 
with the sill angle. 


AD)US LING TELE. VEN DIGATOR 


Truscon ventilators are perfectly adjusted 
to the sash before they leave the factory or 
warehouse. 


Pol Ve Orel i DSS eine ie ag 


Wine DOYS 


Any slight adjustment that may be found 
necessary after the windows are “blocked up” 
may be made by slightly springing the venti- 
lator frame. 


Ventilators should be adjusted after the 
hardware is put on and before the windows 
are glazed. It is impossible to make adjust- 
ments after glazing. 


INSTALLATION BEFORE SILLS 
ARE.CAS | 


When concrete sills are not cast until after 
the window has been installed the legs of the 
units are entered in the rebates at the head and 
jambs as described. The bottom of the win- 
dow is supported in its proper relative posi- 
tion. A few bricks will serve this purpose as 
shown in figure 4. 


The blocking must be inspected just before 
the sills are cast. It is impossible to make 
alterations aiter concrete haseasct 


ATTACHING NMULELOINS 


When two or more units occur in the same 
opening put all mullion bolts in place, but do 
not tighten them until the units have been 
blocked. Some slight adjustment is generally 
necessary and it is easily made because of the 
slotted holes in the jamb bars of the windows 
and the mullions. 


Make sure the jamb bars of the windows are 
not distorted and are free from lumps of paint 
and dirt. In almost every case leaks that occur

at the mullion joints could have been avoided 
if the erector had made sure the surfaces of the 
windows and mullions were clean and straight 
before installation. 


DERENGIH- OF Ss (EEL WINDOWS 


Truscon Pivoted Steel Windows are de- 
signed to stand maximum wind pressure and 
vibration, but not to support any building con- 
struction. It isa grave mistake to expect win- 
dows or mullions to in any way support the 
building structure, or act as a lintel. 


GLAZING 


Truscon Steel Windows are glazed from 
the mside. Each light is held in place by 
spring steel wire glazing clips. 


Glass placed in steel windows must not only 
be glazed in the usual manner but must be 
embedded in the putty so the glass does not 
come directly in contact with the steel. 


Spread putty over the glazing rabbet before 
setting the glass. Push the glass firmly into 
position so that the putty fills every crevice, 
thus giving a uniform, water-tight bearing. 
Slip the glazing clip into place, as shown in 
figure 5, and apply the face putty. 


PAC IESE YG 


Truscon Steel Window Putty spreads easily 
and smoothly and has perfect adhesion to both 
steel and glass. ‘This putty does not harden 
as readily as that used on wood but becomes 
tough and resistive in a comparatively short 
LAIN. 


SEAN DARDEANGIER BRACKET 


The solid steel angle bracket is the basis of 
attachment of all Truscon standard ventilator 
hardware. ‘The bracket is double riveted to 
sill of ventilator at the factory. Punched to re- 


ceive any type Standard Truscon Hardware. 


WIUINTIN BAR CHAIN HOOK 


When the sill of the ventilator is not access- 
ible from the floor this chain hook is attached 
to a vertical muntin bar at the most conven- 
ient place. The hook is held in place with a 
set-screw, and it should be attached before 
glazing. ‘These hooks are not furnished un- 
less specified. 


LATCH AND CHAIN HOOK 


When the cam acting push bar is used this 
standard latch serves as a lock; the edge of 
the bar slipping into the V-shaped groove. 
This hook is used, as illustrated, as a catch for 
chain operated ventilators, when the sill of the 
ventilator is easily accessible from the floor. 


CHAIN HOOK FOR WALL 


This wall hook is used wherever sill of 
ventilator is not accessible from the floor. 
Hook is attached to wall at some convenient 
place below ventilator which chain operates. 
The hook is anchored to wall with expansion 
bolts and shields.
